  I agree! I was at a Walmart one time and some chick ran out right by us at a high speed. We had no idea what was going on but apparently she was stealing. The one worker said as they walked by us “you got all these people standing around doing nothing and they couldn’t stop her?” It was a smart ass comment. Did that employee really believe that I would risk my life for Walmart, of all places? I don’t work there, I’m not security, I’m not a police officer. Not my problem.

  Do you also demand to have underpaid workers standing all day to bag your groceries?

    If it was up to me, they wouldn’t be forced to stand all shift or be underpaid, but since I’m not in charge of shit I can’t change their company’s policies.

  Boy, you’re not gonna be happy when you learn how food stores used to work. They’ve been offloading things labor used to do onto the customers for a century.

    I actually prefer being able to choose my own produce and meats.

    The lines are usually minimal (1 or 2 people) during the time of day I typically go shopping, and I drive an electric that is charged in my garage.

    These people being forced to stand all day in the USA is pure insanity looking from the outside.

      Yup. There’s no reason they couldn’t have a stool.

    I don’t think, nor did I say, they needed to do more. I’m also not particularly fond of small talk, so I dont typically chat with them. They’re paid to do a job, so why would I offer to do that job for free?

  It’s easier to steal shit. So pay yourself with a nice cheap can of Pinot Gris.

    Stealing is wrong.

      If you see someone steal food, no you didn’t.
